Timing lock kit NEO tools TOP-11-320 for petrol and diesel PSA engines

Timing lock kit NEO tools TOP-11-320 for petrol and diesel PSA engines is a specialist tool set intended to lock camshafts and crankshaft positions when performing timing belt or chain maintenance on PSA Group vehicles. The kit includes purpose-built fixtures that hold engine timing positions securely, allowing technicians to remove and install timing components without losing alignment. Designed for use with a range of petrol and diesel PSA engines, the set supports precise timing alignment, safer component replacement and routine service tasks.

Advantages

The kit offers dedicated locking tools that reduce the risk of timing misalignment during service. Its components are engineered to fit PSA engine geometry, providing stable fixation of camshafts and crankshaft to preserve timing settings. Using the kit can shorten service time by providing straightforward securing points and clear reference positions, while minimising the need for improvised solutions that could damage engine components.

Suitable for

• Locking camshafts and crankshaft on petrol PSA engines during timing belt or chain replacement
• Locking camshafts and crankshaft on diesel PSA engines during timing system maintenance
• Engine timing verification and precise alignment after component replacement
• Preventing unintended engine rotation during accessory or front-end repairs

Key specifications

• Application: petrol and diesel engines from PSA Group
• Functionality: camshaft and crankshaft locking fixtures for timing maintenance
• Material properties: durable metal construction designed for workshop use
• Compatibility: multiple fixation points to match common PSA engine configurations
• Use environment: professional and home workshop use on automotive engines

How to use

Position the engine at the service-specified alignment points and fit the appropriate locking fixture to the camshaft sprockets and crankshaft according to the engine layout. Ensure each locking tool seats correctly in the designated locations to prevent rotation. With the timing positions secured, remove or install the timing belt or chain and related components following manufacturer repair procedures. After completing component installation and verifying timing alignment, carefully remove the locking fixtures and rotate the engine by hand to confirm smooth operation and correct timing.

Usage recommendations

Use the kit together with the vehicle manufacturer’s timing specifications and service manual. Verify tool seating before applying force to timing components, and perform a manual rotation check after reassembly to confirm correct timing and prevent engine damage.
